Sheesh, now that I'm comparing the original to what I've done so far it doesn't look like I've hit the mark on anything.
In my defense my picture was taken with a flash which washes out colors, makes them appear brighter and lighter. I'm sure the photo of the original for the on-line auction was taken with proper lighting and camera settings.
Just in case you're wondering, I haven't used any of the recently over dyed wool but will point out the area when it is used. Since I'm taking a leave of absence from the goat briefly, think I'll work on my grandson's rug tonight. Maybe I just need a break and will have renewed energy to finish up the bottom right of the Magdalena Goat tomorrow.

I like yours better than the original because of the definition of the goat. You can actually see the animal and I like the hit and miss style and colors.
ReplyDeleteYour rug is amazing and me thinks you are very close to the original! Maybe just tone down the coral/pink with a little walnut stain???

Your work is amazing!
ReplyDeleteBut don't be too hard on yourself.
Maybe tomorrow a fresh look, and it will all seem better.
I don't know how that could be though!
Hugs!
Fresh eyes after a good night of sleep always does the trick. I think you're on target. Lovely work, as always.
